president obama often talks about returning to clinton era tax rates. he wants to raise much more revenue from high earners than the clinton era tax code would have raised. and president clinton also dramatically lowered capital gains taxes, and that generally benefited high-earners. so a lot of folks believe that's something that balanced out against the increases on ordinary income. so, you know, that's something that arguably contributed to that surge in technology stocks and much else that created surpluses in the latter half of the clinton presidency. it's a more complicated picture. definitely there are folks who want tax increases but let's not gloss over president obama is talking about way higher taxes than we saw during the clinton era on the high earners. >> that's true. all right. want to talk about a party going on tonight. james, pretty good. there is a party going on, jack kemp foundation is having a party and marco rubio is speaking. paul ryan is speaking. they both want to have complete makeovers. you know -- marco rubio doesn't want to

do you think we're looking at bush versus clinton in 2016? >> i think the picture on the democratic side this far out, there's a little more clarity to it -- there's a lot more clarity than the republican side. if hillary clinton were to run in 2016 there are obviously no guarantees in life or politics, but within the democratic party for the democratic nomination, she will be a front-runner like we have never seen before. and i know we sort of said that about her in the run up to '08. she had two liabilities in '08 that were gone. she was considered too much of a polarizing figure. can she get independents to vote for her in the fall. the republicans who had been just relentless critics of her for 15 years in the '90s and the last decade, they have rolled over and lionized her as sort of this alternative 1i78 boll. this is the democrat we like. there's that and the other thing that dragged her down on the democratic side was the iraq war and i think largely that's forgotten now. i think her two big liabilities on the democratic side are gone

against hillary clinton. i think the obama administration has candidly gone too far to the left. you can raise all kinds of questions whether it's good politics or not. but i happen to think it's been too far to the left. i think he's taken the party too far to the left. >> you just feel more comfortable as a republican? >> yeah. like so many other people, i didn't get what i voted for. you know, there are millions of us who voted for barack obama four years ago. gallup's approval rating last time i checked, a few days ago, had president obama at 45% approval. the 53% who voted for president obama, literally close to 10 million people have left his camp. i'm one of many people. >> did you have a close relationship with the president? >> no. >> did you ever talk to him at all? >> i had great respect for the president. don't want to any way suggest we had a close personal relationship. i have great respect for the president as a person. i have great respect for the president's family. i think barack obama is an

joining me with reaction is the author of "screwed" former clinton advisor dick morris. welcome, particular. you can see they all have a sheet in front of them saying it's a penalty, not a tax, but the supreme court said explicitly it's a tax. of course the president pledged not to raise taxes on the middle class. can he get away with this? >> my favorite is the one person who said it was a tax on the 1%. >> it's not rich people paying this tax, is it? >> no. many more will be paying it. just to understand the level of payment to the penalty, you essentially need to spend, depending on your income, somewhere between 5% and 8% of your income, your gross income, before you get any federal assistance in buying health insurance. so if you make $30,000 a year, you've got to pay about $2,000 before you get a penny of assistance in paying for healthcare. >> right. >> those people will all get the penalty or the tax. i think that all this misses the point. obama said in his campaign that he was not going to raise taxes on anyone making less than $200,000 a year. the "wall street

that we've had for bush and as well as clinton. so i'm not necessarily seeing this as an example of him not keeping his word. there clearly might be something in there, seeing how long this program has been in place, that we don't need out that could affect our relationship with mexico. >> i want to move on to the next topic. why do you say it's irrelevant? >> no, however many times president bush invoked executive privilege is totally irrelevant. it's a totally legitimate question. are there security issues that president obama is trying to keep that from coming out? if that's the case, they have to go through all of these documents and categorize them and say why this is a threat to security. the burden is on them invoking executive privilege with all of those documents. >> here's the thing. it's terrible, and i saw the terrys interview, the parents, on fox news. it's heart-wrenching for that family. of course they want answers. to say from both sides this isn't a political issue or it's not being politicized, i think it's dising
